The document discusses the product life cycle, which consists of four stages: introduction, growth, maturity, and decline. In the introduction stage, a product is launched and awareness is built. During growth, sales and profits increase as more customers adopt the product. In maturity, profits are highest as the product owns a large market share. Finally, during decline, revenue decreases due to saturation, competition, or changing customer needs. The document uses Maggi noodles as an example to explain how it moved through each stage of the product life cycle.

Presented by Mahima Sneha Nag What is PRODUCT LIFE CYCLE?
A product life cycle is the
length of time from a product first being introduced to consumers until it is removed from the market. A product’s life cycle is usually broken down into four stages; introduction, growth, maturity, and decline. INTRODUCTION
The introduction stage is
launching the product in the market, trying to develop a market for the product and building product awareness. It is the most crucial stage for the survival of the product. GROWTH When a product enters the growth phase the sales and profits of the product take off, thereby reducing the cost per customer. Increased number of customers lead to increase in sales and profit and seeing the opportunity in this segment, more competitors start entering the market. MATURITY In this phase, the cost per customer is the lowest, profits are high and the product owns a larger part of the market share. Companies usually do not need additional funding at this stage. DECLINE The decline stage of a product life cycle is associated with decrease in revenue due to market saturation, high competition, and changing customer needs. Companies at this stage can either choose to discontinue the product, use the resources of this product to make other company products, sell the manufacturing rights CONCLUSION • This was my take on the product life cycle of Maggi. We also discussed in details the Product Life Cycle of Maggi. • Introductory, growth, maturity and decline stage. • Maggi even today is most liked and valued instant noodle brand in India and now has expanded it’s reach into other diverse flavours and products.
